Former Coordinator of Educational Materials at the Ministry of Public Education (SEP) Marx Arriaga acknowledged that he had several offers from the federal government to hold another position, but he stated that he will not live off the federal budget and will fulfill his duties before his classes. "I am a teacher, I do not live off public administration," he said. He noted that he still does not have data on the settlement he will receive, although he said he will analyze whether he should file a lawsuit for this administrative dismissal and if he will receive the payment that the government will give him. Minutes later, he took his portrait of Karl Marx and left the office. He was seen taking a bus bound for Texcoco, he got off in Coyoacán and boarded the Metro, where he continued to attend to reporters from the national press. He denied any irregularities, including the so-called "moches" that were documented in a note in El Universal.
